PR
PR (Planned Residential)The regulations established in this zone are intended to provide optional methods of land development which encourage more imaginative solutions to environmental design problems. Residential areas thus established would be characterized by a unified building and site development program, open space for recreation and provision for commercial, religious, educational, and cultural facilities which are integrated with the total project by unified architectural and open space treatment.
RequestedCB
CB (Business and Manufacturing)This zone provides for a wide range of business and manufacturing uses. The nature of such businesses is to attract large volumes of automobile and truck traffic and to have adverse effects on surrounding properties. Hence, they are not properly associated with, nor compatible with residential or institutional uses or with other uses that require an environment free of noise, odors and congestion. Uses permitted in the CB, Business and Manufacturing Zone are intensive users of roads, sewers and other public facilities.

Case Notes
− +Staff Recommendation
DENY CB (Business and Manufacturing) zoning based on the sector plan amendment denial.CB zoning permits many uses such as manufacturing, truck and heavy equipment sales, and warehousing and distribution, which would be out of character with adjacent residential land uses. The adjoining CB property to the north is not developed, while the radio station developed to the west has little adverse impact on nearby residences. The sector plan proposes slope protection and low density residential use for this site.
